See "Braveheart" in English - Mel Gibson does quite a good job I gather. .
In the immortal words of Jock Hopson Sensei. "no no no no no"

Scene from Braveheart.

" G'day. The name's William Wallace and you'll never take me freedom" (please utilise an accent borrowed from Neighbours, Home and Away, Skippy or any other Mel Gibson film and you will get the idea.)

Scottish ( or skaw-tish to give it its real pronunciation) is best heard abroad.

Where, as an Englishman, one can enjoy the idyllic sounds of the response of any Scawttish prrrson being approached by timeshare rep/lucky lucky man/pub tout et al. "ah'm no fakkin' 'eng-leish" - This is response to the introductory remark made by aforesaid persons vending their wares - "'ello English you buy from Mig..".

Ahh the sweet sweet sounds of summer holidays everywhere in Europe.
